I have owned most of these petrol cars. I could come up with many more as my favorite list changes daily but these 8 are always on my list. I like my cars as if they left the factory. I had a few of these not so fuel guzzling machines.  Such a beautiful car  Most expensive car I have ever owned. Used after tickling the motor a bit more fuel than my brothers new prime mover. (not actual car)   Mum's last Ford in my favorite color. (not actual car)  I like this so much and would love to own one. I would even sell my wife's car to get one.  How cool are they. Awesome machine.  I will buy one....one day |

10 you say? That makes things easier and harder! So here are ten I like for now: If you are going to have a Jensen, it may as well be an SP:  I used to prefer the Eagle to one of these but times change:  I may as well throw controversy in  :      Yes yes yes, I should have bought that cheap V10 M5 at Classic Car Auctions last week. A massive risk I admit! But with boot on the back. I heard the one at Classic Car Auctions fire up With that howl no day at work would ever be a bad day!    Out of those I suspect the P1, XJ220S, M5, DS Break, Mercedes 300SL and maybe the Lister Le Mans would be keepers. I've been lucky enough to drive a few Jags and an E60 BMW to get an idea, and have also driven a DS ; that really showed me that not all retros are the same; not even close. The rest? I have a suspicion I'd love them but they would dissappoint me. I'll also admit that I've been lucky to have owned a number of cars I've always wanted. W124 Mercs, E46 M3 may be two of those, but I also fancied a 2CV over the past few years. On top of that, I've had a Stag, 944 S2 and Turbo, latter to which was in the spec I wanted. Escort RS Turbo S1 was another one as was the MGB Sebring, albeit not finished to how I wanted back then. 205 GTI, and a 106 GTi also join that list. It's funny; as time goes on my list of cars I wanted hasn't changed much but a few surprises have crept in. I never saw the deal with Citroen DSs until I went in one. Same with the E60 M5; I heard one and wow, what a superb sound! |

Now that's a nice XJS, I might have to have a dream about that tonight! Without going too far off topic and trying to keep this thread about 10 top choices, here is more about it. It ain't a looker but it sure is a beast! It's a Lister Le Mans XJS. For me it was always about the JaguarSport XJR-s until these came along. Now a Lister engine in an XJR-s... www.1000sel.com/index.php/wp-automotive/lister-le-mans |
